Really cool, does Volume 1 contain the whole of the 1st season and Volume 2 contain whole of the 2nd season. Because if not, bit too pricey.

I knew they were going to re-release the series. I think that's around $135? If it is I can afford it.

That's because you don't live in Japan, the Land of Expensive DVDs.

I wonder if you realize that the only way to change aspect ratio is to discard around one third of video picture by cropping it? Why would anyone bother to buy and watch such mutilated version with a lot of heads, hands, legs, buildings, and whatever other details being cut out when they can buy and watch the original and full version?

Maybe yes, but It's the company who release the dvd, I mean, the video I have on my signature, I cropped and don't have a mutilated version, I study computer graphics and so far I guess they can do that ^_^'
so far :blush:

How, specifically? If the original video was created in 4:3 aspect ratio, there is nothing that can be done about it already to change the ratio apart from cutting large fragments of video picture from the top and the bottom.

I was looking a video for a youtube user who shows how he transform from 4:3 ratio to 16:9, the video was pretty cool, but he already deleted the video :supercry: you can see a video preview here
http://www.web-resort.com/fisheye/video ... ok-HD.html
on the preview shows a black band up and down of video, and the video showed how remove these bands filling them with video
I'm not saying you're wrong, as tell you, i'm studying so far and maybe you're right, but with the advance tecnology of sound of video, why not? ^_^

PD: the youtube user is Rydell

So they're broken up by the actual seasons now instead of by series? Maybe now people will stop referring to them as five seasons. :P yeah right...

Anyway, good. I was just watching my R disks the other day.. I wish I had never bought them. The quality is abysmal. I had to download #67 because it was cut (which still angers me. Yes, I know all the reasons) and the quality of the download was literally five times clearer than my expensive disks. This taught me a valuable lesson... NEVER buy what you can ninja. I'm downloading the rest of R right now so I can finish watching the series.

Sailor Moon was MADE in 4:3. If you watched a show in 4:3 and suddenly watch it in 16:9 now, thats probably because thats how it was originally made. The only way to rerelease it in a different aspect ratio is, like the red name says, to mutilate it. Ether you can crop it, zooming in and loosing the top and bottom of the shot, or stretch it, which is about the same as grabbing every character by the cheeks and pulling as hard as you possibly can. If, like most of the ignorant masses, you don't mind watching a distorted picture because you hate having black bars on the side of your TV, then you can stretch the picture yourself.

They should absolutely not change the aspect ratio in which the show was made. The original Star Trek series is now out on Blu-Ray and that's 4:3, not 16:9. Cropping is bad, especially when the show was made for 4:3.

Curious to see if there is any change in this DVD. I wouldn't buy these again if there's no improvement. The other ones are quite good.

If not anything else, then, maybe, they will at least include those small gifts, like puzzles or notebooks, like they were making with previous DVD releases? We'll see as the release date is approaching. It's definitely a great news, and an additional confirmation that Sailor Moon revival is on the way =^_^=

Probably creditless opening/ending, and TV spot collection.

Exactly. Looks like the same "extras" as the previous release. :cry:

This price is a bargain though! Previous release had 7 dvds for 4000 yen each! That's 28000 yen for the whole season! Now you can get it for cheaper and in a nicer box.

If it comes out on Region 1 it'll almost definitely be cheaper but for Japan that's pretty good.

Based on the identical features and very similar box art I'd be willing to bet this is an identical release to the last ones, but just packaged differently. The price is a bit better for those who haven't gotten these before, and due to the fact that each set is it's own item the shipping cost will likely be much lower. Buying these 2 discs at a time previously made for a lot more overhead.

Unless some information convinces me otherwise, I don't see any reason to buy these.

I'm really digging the box art though!
